When a reader asked about a replacement for eggs for one of my crispy baked panko crusted recipes one of the things that came to mind was a sweet, smoky and spicy BBQ sauce . BBQ sauce would be thick enough to cling to the food and hold on the panko bread crumbs and it would also add a ton of flavour! Of course one of the fist things that I thought about using the BBQ sauce on was some crispy baked onion rings; I mean you really cannot go wrong with combining onion rings and BBQ sauce! The recipe for these crispy baked onion rings could not be easier, you just dip the onion rings into the BBQ sauce, dredge them in the panko breadcrumbs and then bake until nice and golden brown and crispy. You can use your favourite BBQ sauce either store bought or homemade and using different flavours every once in a while will keep things interesting! The only thing that you really need to worry about is getting the BBQ sauce to the right consistency; you want it to be thick enough to coat the onion rings but thin enough that it does not coat in globs. (If your BBQ sauce is too thick you can thin it down with some water and if it is too thin you can thicken it up by simmering it for a few minutes.) These crispy baked BBQ onion rings are the tastiest onion rings that I have ever had and BBQ sauce definitely works well as a replacement for eggs as the binder!

These baked BBQ onion rings are tasty enough to eat all by themselves but it you prefer serve them with extra BBQ sauce, ketchup, mayo, BBQ mayo, etc. for dipping.

What a great idea! I suddenly want to start coating everything in BBQ sauce and dredging in in panko. STay tuned because I can almost guarantee that my blog will have BBQ Breaded Chicken Fingers very soon (with credit to you for a brilliant idea, of course!!!!).

You've done it again, Kevin. I've been wanting to try these, and when we had a slow spell at work, I threw a handful of rings into the deep fryer. Big mistake. I was going by (faulty) memory and forgot they were supposed to go into the oven. About half the breading fell off--earning me a dirty look from the grill cook--but I was able to tell what they should taste like, properly done. They were great. I think I'll make them for Labor Day--and do it right this time. Thanks.

I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.
